Don't Tell
I don’t trust anyone. Not after my dad abandoned me.
Not after the toxic affair with my high school teacher. Not after the attack that nearly killed me.
And definitely not after the lies I’ve told—to myself and others.
For twelve years, I’ve buried my secrets, trying to live the perfect suburban life. I’m married to a wonderful man, and I have a rewarding career at Camp Wildfire—a sanctuary for troubled teens nestled on the edge of a sprawling forest. Life looks good on the surface, but one crack and it could all fall apart.
Turns out, that crack has a name. Amanda.
Her arrival rips open old wounds, forcing me to confront the past I’ve kept hidden from everyone, including my husband. The secrets I’ve buried are threatening to destroy me—and I’ve recently learned that I’m not the only one hiding something big.
A camper has gone missing, echoing a tragic disappearance from years ago. As I learn more about the girl, I’m forced to question everything. My marriage. My memories. And my own sanity.
Because some monsters are real. Especially the ones inside us.
From bestselling author Mary Stone and Matt Giegerich, Don't Tell is a pulse-pounding psychological thriller that will captivate fans of The Perfect Marriage, Behind Closed Doors, and The Wife Between Us. Get ready for a twisty, unputdownable journey into the darkness that lurks behind the perfect facade.
